Dave -

I thought you'd enjoy this (photo just posted to Flickr at http:// www.flickr.com/photos/edyson/90688857/ )

good: I'm posting this in near realtime from my Lufthansa flight, via Connexion by Boeing.
bad: the guy behind me (pictured) is using Skype!

solution: I see a big market for a a voice-canceling (inbound) microphone that will suck in someone's voice and transmit it to Skype (or whatever) but prevent it from being heard by the people nearby.
